Lucas and Bronwyn

I saw a twitter meme template and thought. Ya know, I'm good enough to do my version of these memes now. So I did

Bronwyn (Dual Daggers)

Did this one recently, my attempt to do more dynamic poses as I go and do them in a certain amount of time. I did these in like 2 days. Here I tried to age up the character a bit since she was supposed to be like 11 in the original image. This is the template I mainly used

Bronwyn Casts Wind Blast

Here I wanted to try doing effects like magic blasts/beams. Ultimately, it was not entirely what I wanted... but what I wanted was more professional grade. So for what I mustered up here, I'm satisfied. I'll get where I want to eventually. Here's the template I used

Zecora Vulperosa V3 (Young Adult)

Same story with the kid version. I wanted to update the look from V2. I felt like V2's outfit looked to modern for a fantasy setting at the time. I felt V3's outfit was appropriate enough for me. I used some Dragon Ball fanart as a basis for this one, don't know the name of the artist though. I also really wanted to showcase the blend between human, fox and snow leopard on this one. So I made the tail longer and added spots on the face.

Zecora Vulperosa V3 (Kid)

By this year, I feel like I developed my art style enough where I could pump out more work, more rapidly than before. And that I've gotten good enough to not need weeks to finish a drawing. So I figured, might as well redraw this character to show your growth and hopefully show more similarities between her, Lucas and Lilith. I was gonna start the redraw with an adult version but I wanted to challenge myself with making a kid version and a more dynamic pose.

Zecora Vulperosa V2

The original concept of this drawing was one I abandoned in 2020. I had started on a drawing with a different outfit for this character but at the time I couldn't get the perspectives looking right. She ended up looking derpy. So come 2023, I sought to finish what I started. Glad I did. I made an alt color variant based on the original colors I was gonna use. I wanted to show a mix of snow leopard, fox and human here. If it wasn't obvious Lucas and Lilith are intended to be her parents.

Zecora Vulperosa V1

At some point in 2020, I thought I've drawn my character Lucas a couple of times. So why not try something different? Here I started to give Lucas a family, starting with this one I named, Zecora. This was before Lucas was attached to any story concept or anything. So I hadn't envisioned any other details I may have wanted expect to just make her a fox girl. This was also a drawing from my friend that I adapted. So, I have no idea what reference he used.

Bronwyn Ruibos

The concept for this character was very spontaneous. Years ago there was this image I found of some screaming opossum character with a yellow hoodie in a mailbox. I saved the image years ago and that became the inspiration for this character. I envision her to end up becoming Lucas's apprentice at some point. I'm still working on her origins. But for now, she's just an abandoned child working for a thieves' den. I also decided to add a quick background cause I thought it would be weird to have a random tree, a character and nothing else but white space. @joaoppereiraus oc Gwen was also a heavy influence on the design for this. Especially after watching "BIG KID'S TOY". Made me want to make a mouse like character. Went with an opossum after some suggestions.

Lilith Ashbluff

At some point, I thought of crafting a story with my character Lucas. This is a character I came up with to eventually join his team. She's a thief and a brawler.

Juni V2

This was a tough one to hurdle over. I wasn't used to foreshortening or general perspective art. I opted to give him a simpler outfit than v1.

Juni V1

Sometime in 2022. I got the urge to make a Sonic character. So I attempted to make one. But I ended up making the character in my own "style" as opposed to the Sonic character style and portions. Still was satisfied with how he turned out.

Lucas's Inspirations

Saw this trend earlier this year. Thought I should do it too.

Lucas (Kid)

After cementing the look I was trying to go for, I went back and tried to make a kid version based on v6. Still had trouble getting proportions down but progress nonetheless

[sinisterslyfox]

Lucas Casting Magic

Here I wanted to draw him with casual clothes attempting to harness his magic.

Lucas v6 - The Progenitor Version

I didn't finish this one till 2021. But when I did, it kickstarted a wave of inspiration for me for multiple reasons. In this particular version, I completed a full body drawing(albeit this drawing is based off an anime character I forget the name and show of. I think the name is Grimoire Fantasy? I'm not sure. This was also a hand-drawn template from my friend. I'll have to figure it out later.), I believe I cemented the look I wanted for this character because this became the base for all my future iterations of this character so far, I started on my journey with getting better with anatomy, and eventually, I was inspired to make a story revolving around this character with other characters and stuff I'm planning for later.

Lucas v4 Revised

I got curious as to how different I could make the same drawing look without changing much and applying my new experiences and organizing skills.

Lucas v5

On the same note of trying to forever improve my skills, this one was slightly different from the others. The previous versions' bases were more... tailored to a certain "look" I was trying to go for. I use Part 1 Gaara as a base for this one. I wanted to make the hair more bushy but I didn't really know how to pull that off while not having it look too uncanny to me. Here I believe is where I started using vector layers, which significantly sped the process up for me. I made different expressions from this one to try out making expressions
